I can so understand Aragorn. It is appalling when you are not able to feed yourself. At least he seems to admit finally that he is sick and needs some help.

I can appreciate why Elrond is laughing at the same time he is deeply worried. At least they have the abcess drained. But it is so wearily worrying not to appreciate why those we love and care about don't grow better!

Elrond is not to be envied to have to deal with such patients!So I found it very nice of Gandalf to make him laugh with his joking.

Should either patient awaken while Elrond was conducting the procedure there would be a war to rival the second age.

Now that makes me curious! Will it come to that "procedure"? Is it *that* embarrassing?
